The Quickest Easiest Gravy

A few weeks ago I posted my super quick and easy “instant” gravy recipe on the Facebook page. I thought I’d better have it up on here too, as it’s such a goodie, and makes sure that not one drop of the delicious roast meat juices goes to waste.

Basic Jam and “Jelly”

Merry Christmas Eve Spud Muffins,

If you fancy the idea of making your own cranberry sauce or “jelly” to go with the Turkey, ham, salmon (heck, even just slathering it on organic sprouted or sourdough bread with a shite-tonne of avocado or macadamia butter if you’re veg or vegan) this year, I think you’ll appreciate the simplicity of the following recipe.

I’m On FULL GAPS!

Oh hello there. You’ve found some very old content. Please read the disclaimer on this page before thinking I’m still a total sheep who has been sucked into a bone-broth worshipping fad diet. Been there, learned from that and am now a much less rigid human.

It’s been crazy these past few months. Full time study takes up a lot of time! To be honest with you, I’ve even had times where I’ve considered leaving the blogosphere. I didn’t want the ‘added pressure’ of maintaining a website. It’s okay my new pals Emma and Carla snapped me out of that. Real Soup HQ is here to stay.
